I love my garden. I’m not a master gardener, there are weeds everywhere, and a lot of times my plants don’t produce well, but it’s mine. (I’ll post a photo when I can figure out how to)
I love how much slower time passes in the garden. The sounds of bees buzzing, seeing the plants grow, feeling the wind and the sun. I love the connection to nature and the flow I feel when caring for it. family and friends like to poke at how I could do things “better” if I used power equipment or pesticides/herbicides, but that’s not the point. I’m not trying to “do better” or be more productive. It’s my simple place where I can disconnect from everything and do things my way.
What are your outlets or routines that give you peace and tranquility?
I also love sitting in my garden (really more of over grown weeds that look pretty and flower sometimes). I like having little fires and just listening to the breeze. It really is so special to have a outdoor space where i can just be.
